Shen Zhile looked up helplessly, unaware that her eyes were brimming with tears, large teardrops sliding down her cheeks.

"She let go."

Shen Zhile repeated these words, looking into her calm eyes, which showed no trace of desire for life.

Cheng Yu hugged the person in front of him with heartache and gently comforted her, "She was caught by the firefighters."

"Young lady, this isn't your fault; you're very brave."

Upon hearing this, Shen Zhile looked towards the fence and saw a firefighter holding a woman tightly in his arms. No matter how much she struggled, the firefighter refused to let go.

The rope was pulled upwards, and the firefighter and Xiao Yan were brought up together.

Xiao Yan lay quietly on the ground, tears streaming down her face. "You shouldn't have saved me! Why did you save me?!"

"I'd already made up my mind, why did you save me?!"

Xiao Yan curled up in pain, her cries growing more and more miserable. She had clearly made up her mind, so why were they pulling her back from the edge of the cliff time and time again?

No one can save her now!

Shen Zhile looked at the people in front of her, and only then did the violent beating of her heart slowly calm down.

Fortunately.

Thankfully, she didn't die.

Thankfully, there were firefighters.

For the first time, Shen Zhile realized how close death was. Looking at the child in her arms, who had cried herself to sleep, biting her finger and rolling her eyes, she smiled with relief.

She raised the baby very well.

Shen Zhile walked over there, and the firefighters were still trying to persuade her, but Xiao Yan wouldn't listen to a word.

"Xiao Yan, your child."

Hearing about her child, Xiao Yan seemed to come back to life. She turned her head and saw her baby grinning at her.

At that moment, Xiao Yan felt relieved. She reached out and took the baby, burying her head in the swaddling clothes and crying silently.

[Ding! Mission: Rescue of the girl who jumped off the bridge has been completed. Reward: Xinglan Pharmaceutical Company.]

[Completing the task will randomly reward you with 10 attribute points.]

Shen Zhile leaned against Cheng Yu, her hands trembling slightly.

This was also the first time she had saved someone.

Thankfully, no one was hurt.

……

police station.

After communicating with the police, the firefighter glanced at Xiao Yan before turning and leaving.

However, after she left, a young soldier ran over and stopped in front of Shen Zhile, asking, "Can you really save her?"

The young soldier had bright eyes and a youthful innocence still lingering on his face, but he was the soldier who saved Xiao Yan.

Shen Zhile nodded, "As long as she's willing, I can save her."

Upon hearing this, the young soldier smiled broadly, took out a piece of candy from his pocket, but hesitated to hand it over after noticing that it had melted a little.

Seeing this, Shen Zhile reached out and took it, saying, "Thank you."

The young soldier smiled and scratched his head. "You're such a good person! My mother always said that someone like you is destined for great fortune!"

Shen Zhile watched the young soldier run away, and waved to him after getting into the fire truck.

Thinking of what he said, Shen Zhile smiled.

You are a good person too.

Great fortune is sure to follow.

Shen Zhile turned and went into the police station.

Inside the police station, Xiao Yan held her child, her eyes vacant as she looked down at the baby in her arms.

The policewoman in front of her frowned. She had been asking for a long time, but the other party refused to answer.

It was as if she had shut herself off into a small space.

Although such incidents are rare, each one is extremely difficult to handle.

As Shen Zhile approached, a policeman saw her and came over. "Ms. Shen, Ms. Xiao has been like this ever since she arrived at the police station. We are planning to contact her husband."

As if receiving a special signal, Xiao Yan, who had been keeping her head down and silent, suddenly looked up and shook her head, "No!"

Don't want Wang Chenghu!

The policewoman hadn't expected her husband to cause such a strong emotional reaction, so she quickly comforted her and gave the male officer behind her a look, signaling him to leave.

The male police officer looked somewhat embarrassed as he led Shen Zhile out of the room.

Shen Zhile didn't say anything, watching the policewoman hug and comfort Xiao Yan, then looked at the policeman and said, "Don't rush to contact her."

The male police officer was somewhat embarrassed, since this matter could be considered a family dispute no matter how you looked at it.

What can the police do? They can only call the man out and lecture him, making him understand that abandoning his wife on the elevated highway was a mistake.

However, there is no guarantee that this will not happen again.

Shen Zhile didn't say anything, but stepped inside.

When Xiao Yan saw the person who had arrived, a glimmer of light appeared in her eyes, but it quickly dimmed.

When the policewoman saw the man enter, she initially wanted him to leave, but Xiao Yan didn't show any strong emotional reaction to his appearance, so she didn't say anything more.

Shen Zhile walked up to Xiao Yan, pulled out a chair from the side, and looked at Xiao Yan at eye level.

"Xiao Yan, I'll say it again: if you need it, I can help you."

Xiao Yan looked up helplessly, her voice choked with sobs, "How...how can I help?"

While she was on the elevated highway, the most common thing she heard was words of comfort, telling her to live a good life with her husband.

Upon arriving at the police station, the police also chose to contact the husband.

She had no one to rely on.

Do you want a divorce? I can help you.

"You can appeal the child's judgment; I can have my legal team help you get it."

But Shen Zhile needs to know Xiao Yan's wishes.

She can offer help because, as a woman, she can empathize.

So she wanted to help women like that.

Xiao Yan didn't reply immediately, and Shen Zhile wasn't in a hurry either, so she just waited quietly.

Xiao Yan looked down at the baby in her arms. The child had just drunk the formula the policewoman had prepared and was now asleep.

Her peaceful sleeping face made her feel choked up.

She had thought about divorce before, but it was difficult—the one-month cooling-off period and the complicated divorce procedures.

There was also a mediator who mediated, telling her that her child needed to have a happy childhood and couldn't be without a father.

So she always endured it for the sake of her child.

"Divorce is not an option; divorce is very difficult!"

Xiao Yan was in tears, but she didn't dare to cry out loud for the sake of her sleeping child; her voice was choked with sobs.

She wants a divorce.

Even though she would have to raise the child on her own, she was willing to do so.

"I will help you."

Perhaps it was Shen Zhile's unwavering gaze that made Xiao Yan slowly relax.

"I want a divorce, please help me!"

The policewoman remained silent. She had just entered the police station and was fully in favor of divorce in this situation.

A man who abandons his wife and children on an elevated highway and drives away alone doesn't seem like a good man at all.

……

"Damn it! Where are my wife and son?"

"Making me come to the police station to pick someone up so late at night, that bitch has some nerve!"

Wang Chenghu stood at the entrance of the police station with a cigarette in his mouth, his foul language showing no fear of being restrained in the police station.

The male police officer frowned, his face showing displeasure. "Wang Chenghu! You abandoned your wife and children on the elevated highway. Do you know that's where accidents are most likely to happen?!"

And Xiao Yan even threatened to jump off the bridge with the child! Don't you feel even a shred of remorse?!
